dpd project [VERSION 2!] [Full List of Discs] [FAQ] [Find A Song or Band] [Message Board]      

Welcome to DPD!


The DPD Project is a thematic mix-CD project created by music geeks and best friends Chris Diamond, Chris Prokop, and Michael Darpino.

Each CD in the project has a theme that ties the songs on it together. For every theme we each pick five songs that we feel best represent it. The collected fifteen songs are then mixed together in alternating order based on our last names. The songs that end up on DPD are meant to be the very best songs for their particular theme.

We write liner notes for each song to explain why we picked it for that theme. The project has grown into a sort of musical memoir over the years since music has been and still is such a huge part of our lives.

Random DPD Pick:


In the Ghetto
by: S.W.A.T.
from: Deep Inside A Cop's Mind: The Soundtrack to the New Police State

Picked By: prokop
For: DPD: 017 - DPD's 15 Most Wanted: Songs about Cops

From the SWAT liner notes:

"Cops are the only people standing between you and them. You're too weakened by civilization to defend yourself. You want someone else to do the dirty work for you, just as you expect Ronald McDonald to slaughter your cattle and chicken before you eat them. In case you haven't noticed, there's a lot of cheap, spoiled meat on the streets these days. Does that statement make you defensive? Perhaps I'm talking about you. Rollcall: junkies, gangsters, killers, rapists, dustheads, welfare cheats, petty thieves, wife-beaters, carjackers, pimps, strawberries, puke-smeared drunks, crusty schizos, AIDS-splattered shooting galleries... Had enough, Buster? Cops spend all week with their heads dunked in the social toilet. They see all the oozing pus sores, the social cancers, every predatory, bottom-feeding, crustacean character no one else is able to handle. Could you endure the naked stench for fifteen minutes? No, but sit and criticize like the cowering, two-bit punk you are. We are S.W.A.T. Today we get you for a ride along. Tomorrow we get our hands dirty."

A master piece from Jim Goad (on vocals for this track btw), Boyd Rice, and a cameo from Anton Levey.
